Dunno, just threw something together in the hope that it used up some of his time attempting to figure it out.
Ohhh can I be given permission to go off topic here for a second and have a quick blether about the film... I love all the Orwell books (or Eric Arthur Blair if you wish to use his real name), and I think overall the film was very interesting and worth watching, but as one film critic to another Mr Exoskeletal, did you not find the film at times to be conveying different messages than the novel? I am referring of course, to the nudity in the scenes with Julia, starting with the one where she casts off her clothes whilst running towards the camera in slow motion. My problem is that it just seems to be making the scene one of lust, lasciviousness and more in the style of porn than anything else. I don't think that was what Orwell was getting at at all. Was it not, a sense of liberation, a defiant gesture against the party and their destroying of the sex instinct, having sex not to "do their duty to the party" but because they wanted to. Apart from that, the face of Big Brother was excellently chosen, and O'Brien was played really well. |
